In this episode of the Art of Business English podcast, "How To Manage Discussions When Chairing A Meeting," I dive into the essential strategies for effective meeting facilitation. This episode is crafted for professionals ready to steer discussions with confidence and ensure everybody’s voice is heard.
I share the importance of creating clear guidelines, the nuances of active listening, and methods for encouraging equal participation. Highlighting the chair’s role in staying neutral, I also provide phrases that can help maintain objectivity and foster a collaborative atmosphere. To round off the discussion, I offer advice on concluding meetings effectively, laying down next steps, and expressing gratitude for participants' insights.
Tune in to this episode for a compact guide on mastering the art of chairing meetings, all from my first-hand experience and dedicated research. Whether you're new to the role or looking to refine your skills, this content is tailored to help you lead with authority and inclusiveness.
